Manager Jordan, of the Lake I.odore
Land and linpiovement company, and
soveinl residents of Waymnrt, who had
previously seaiehed for the body.
A systematic effort was made to re
cover the body, by diving, swlmmlnc,
wading, grappling raking and honking
through the water, but without success
nnd the henrch was kept up until dark.
Contrary to expectations, but few
stumps were encountered, and the

caught by something or else it has
punk Into a rut In the lake. Another
effort will be made today to recover
the body, when Mr. Meredith will take
the Kdglnton boy up to the lake nnd

pathy is expressed for the bercacd

Who would be willing to toil and struggle to do the
childrens dress making for the family, if she knew
that she could achieve the same, if not better results,
by purchasing the garments she cuts and sews, ready
to wear, and for about the same price as she would
have to pay for the materials?
There Is Not and
That Is the Reason Why
We Desire to Say a Few Words
Today on Ready-to-Wear
Wash Dresses for Girls of
From 2 to 10 Years of Age.
These Dainty and Stylish
Wash Dresses for Children

eral strike of, the Mine AVorkers.
None of the llrcmen In this city em
ployed at nny of the factories, mills

understood, but their case Is being
considered l)y the state executive com
mittee. They only work ten hours a day
and their salary amounts to JR a month
more than the mlno llrcmen receive and
the question as to whether they would
be Justllled in going out Is thctcforo
being considered.
